However that doesn't suit your narrative to seek out objective facts.

Given BBC3 (broadcast version) at the end was filled with back to back Family Guy and it's related shows, it hardly owned all the broadcast content. I'm
not saying FG and the like cost them £50m by the way!
Back then,
to my recollection, the BBC said it cost £80m to run the channel and £50m would be saved by going online only. I never believed that figure given it shared transmission space with CBBC and that was continuing.
